Not sure who to alert to this, but: when filling out the EA Organization Survey, I noticed that one of the fields asks for a date in DD/MM/YYYY format. As an American this tripped me up and I accidentally tried to enter a date in MM/DD/YYYY format because I am more used to seeing it.
I suggest using the ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD) format on forms that are used internationally to prevent confusion, or spelling out the month (e.g. “1 December 2023” or “December 1, 2023″).

I think it’s probably best to alert whoever sent you the survey, I wouldn’t rely on them noticing quick takes on the EA Forum
